Dictionary

The International is a thorough revision of the Unabridged, the purpose of which has been not display nor the provision of material for boastful and showy advertisement, but the due, judicious, scholarly thorough perfecting of a work which in all the stages of its growth has obtained in an equal degree the favor and confidence of scholars and of the general public.

"It is The One Great Standard Authority the perfection of dictionaries: "so writes Hon. D.J. Brewer, Justice of the United States Supreme Court, who voices the general sentiment.

Established 1889. Eight Years of Increasing Success 48 LARGE QUARTO PAGES and SUPPLEMENT. Monthly-Illustrated-$1.00 a Year.

Such a methods paper as the Teachers World is a necessity to every wide-awake, conscientious teacher. The dollar it costs is no measure ofits real value to you. But you also need a home paper to keep in touch with local and state educational events, and for that purpose (not forgetting the additional material it contains) there is nothing better than the Western Journal of Education to supplement your methods paper. BOTH PAPERS ONE YEAR, $1.25. Leaders in their respective classes, you will find in them everything you need in your work, and much more than you might get elsewhere.

Send $1.25 to the WESTERN JOURNAL OF EDUCATION, 723 Market Street, San Francisco, and both papers will be mailed to you for one year.

To save $1.25 and miss the helpfulness of such a combination is mistaken economy.

The enrollment of the California Teachers' Association was 1506. This is the largest membership ever attained by the Association in this State. The only December meeting that has approached this in numbers was the Illinois meeting with a membership of 1200. Contra Costa County sent in a membership larger than the actual number of teachers at present employed, and Supt. Phalin and his progressive associates were suitably honored by the committee on resolutions.

Prof.

Prof. Allen sent a communication to the State Board of Education which outlined a plan for conducting an official organ. It emphasized the point that an account of institute proceedings should not be confined to pleasant remarks about superintendents but should be devoted to what the institute lecturers said. Allen's suggestion is a good one, but there is one difficulty. The institute lecturer generally uses the same speech at different institutes, and after his remarks had been printed as instruction to the teachers in several counties the subject matter would be rather old for publication and re-publication.
